How far is this FORD FUSION from an export port?

The lot sat at COPART in TX - HOUSTON. The nearest major vehicle export port is Houston, roughly 200 miles away.

What does "ENGINE START PROGRAM" mean on this listing?

ENGINE START PROGRAM is the auction's own condition note for this 2018 FORD FUSION. It is a short status flag applied by the auction, not the result of a mechanical inspection. Anything beyond that has to come from the photos and a physical inspection.
